As for bigger, stronger dogs, wider and heavier collars are best to make sure that a collar is the right fit on your dog, make sure you can squeeze at least two fingers in between the dog’s neck and the collar.

Nylon collars are washable and durable and are perfect for dogs that like to swim and for smaller dogs and puppies, that need a softer touch.

There are collars that are made out of the same material as wetsuits and for those impatient dogs that pull on your leash during walks head collars are the best option and are often used in training.
